Happy 27th and 31st to us!

Two sickies on their birthdays. A good time. :)
...

At least we danced it up in Vegas a couple weeks ago...

Hehe. Becca and I tired hard to pump up the excitement. :)

saturday night

What to do while the baby spends the night at his grandparents...

well, make an 8 hour roundtrip drive to vegas of course. :)

The crazy shenanigans included a 6 hour stay at the Luxor...


good times with this crazy couple...

a drive through the strip, food, dancing, more food, more dancing, and $100 slot win!

Then it was time to high-tail it back home before the sun set.

All the while, this little man sidewalk-chalked-it-up!

Thanks mom and dad (and Audra!) for letting us squeeze in a last minute, early birthday celebration!
And thanks Corey and Becca for being the "best we've ever had in vegas!" :)

Disneyland, Dinner, Toys and Toon Town

Mommy and the Birthday Boy went to Disneyland...
.

And spent a ton of time in just-my-size Toon Town...

Then Daddy met us for toy shopping and dinner...

A little singing and a little candle...

to round out a perfect birthday!

The Fun and The Face

The face. Loving eyes, scrunched nose. Melts me every time.

I couldn't have asked for a more appreciative present opener. Ewan was excited about everything and proudly showed off each loved new item.

First car!

First golf clubs from daddy!

The end of the night. Wiped out. But still trying to drive. :)
